520 _ahis issue of Hazard provides an overview of intentional injury in Victoria, among adults aged 15 years and older. Intentional injury encompasses both self-harm: purposely self-inflicted injury or poisoning; and assault: injuries inflicted by another person with intent to injure or kill. This report is based on VISU- held Emergency Department (ED) presentation and hospital admissions data, and deaths recorded in the National Coronial Information System. Injury trends as well as injury patterns in the three most recent years of available data are presented. The purpose of this edition of Hazard is to: • Provide insight into trends and patterns of assault-related death and hospital treated injury in Victoria; • Investigate self-harm related hospital treated injury trends and patterns in Victoria; • Present an overview of self-harm deaths (suicide) in Victoria. Injury trends are presented for the years 2006/7 to 2015/16 (hospital data) and 2006/7 to 2013/14 (deaths); more detailed injury statistics are presented for the years 2013/14 to 2015/16.
